WORTH 100 POINTS! Gerry and Tony live 11 miles apart. Gerry leaves his home at 2:00 PM and bikes toward Tony's house at 25 miles/hour. At the same time, Tony leaves his home and bikes toward Gerry's house at 30 miles/hour. They wave as they pass each other. As soon as each boy reaches the others' home, they turn back around towards their own homes. This time, they stop when they see each other. How far are they from Gerry's home when they stop?

Please write an equation or more than one equation using Distance=Rate*Time.

:) please give a heart for thanks

and brainliest crown :)

Step-by-step explanation:

For both d=r*t

Each bikes to others house and leave at the same time so for Tony,

11 = 30*t

t= 11/30 hours

for Gerry,

11 = 25*t

t= 11/25 hours

Comparing these, with LCD,

Tony's time is 55/150

Gerry's time is 66/150

So Tony got to Gerry's house 11/150 hours quicker than Gerry got to Tony's house.

Now they turn around and head back toward each other. If they leave at the same exact time, the elapsed time for each until they met would be the same so t (for tony) = t (for gerry), but Tony got a head start.

We start the stopwatch when Gerry turns around 11/150 hours after Tony has turned around. If Gerry's time to where they meet from Tony's house t(gerry), then Tony's time from Gerry's house is t(gerry) + 11/150
